Abstract: A covering membrane for medical wound area treatment is disclosed for burns or for preventing adhesion. The covering membrane has a substrate layer including a polymer material as well as collagen particles which have a particle size I of more than 80 ?m and are disposed in such a way as to be fixedly embedded in at least some portions of the polymer material of the substrate layer. The covering membrane further relates to a process for manufacturing such a covering membrane.

Abstract: A two-dimensional material for the medical wound area treatment is disclosed. A non-woven fabric consists of resorbable polymer filaments and collagen particles which have a particle size I>80 ?m and are disposed on and/or in the non-woven fabric.

Abstract: A plaster preparation includes (a) at least one resorbable polymer made of at least three monomer units, in particular a terpolymer, having monomers selected from the group consisting of trimethylene carbonate, glycolide, lactide (in particular DL-lactide), p-dioxanone, ?-caprolactone and/or butyrolactone; (b) at least one readily vaporizable organic solvent; and (c) at least one propellant. The plaster preparation additionally relates to a polymer film, to a spray plaster spray device, to a method for producing polymer fiber nonwoven materials, to a polymer fiber nonwoven material, and to uses of the plaster preparation.

Abstract: A medical product for use in treating/managing hernias, prolapses, urinary incontinence and/or dyspareunia in humans and/or animals including at least one textile fabric having a textile ground structure and thread structures which protrude from the trextile ground structure, wherein at least some of the thread structures are interloped with the textile ground structure.

Abstract: A biologically resorbable nerve guide rail with a microporous guide tube of polymers of hydroxycarboxylic acids, where the porosity allows a metabolism through the tube wall, but prevents the passage of cells, and optionally several monofilaments of polymers of hydroxycarboxylic acids located in the guide tube, is characterized in that the inner surface of the tube and/or the surface of the monofilaments have an orientation aid for longitudinally oriented colonization with Schwann's cells.

Abstract: A suture material for surgery comprises one or more filaments and is formed with a coating, which is characterized in that the coating at least partly comprises a bioresorbable polymer, which is essentially formed from a random terpolymer with a completely amorphous structure.

Abstract: A surgical suture material of absorbable, synthetic polymer is formed from glycolide-trimethylene carbonate copolymer with a glycolide content higher than 76 wt. % and with a statistical distribution of the monomers. Within 9 to 21 days, the suture material has a complete breaking strength loss and is completely absorbed in vivo after 35 to 91 days.

Abstract: A surgical suturing thread is coated with a fatty acid metal salt. For this purpose it is dissolved in an organic solvent and the suturing thread is coated with the hot solution, whose temperature is so high that the fatty acid metal salt remains in the dissolved state. The solvent is then evaporated from the thus applied coating at elevated temperature.
